I feel like I'm at the end of the road as far as things to make this go away...I've had three stellate ganglion blks and three axillary blocks....is there anything else out there? I also have a tens unit but don't use it much... I didn't see any improvement with it.
She has crps in her upper arm after a shoulder surgery. If there are any other questions just ask.
Any help I can get to help this person I would very much appreciate! Thank you!!  |
I just want to put on here that this person knows that I posted this and is a friend. She asked me to post this to try to get some help. She just doesn't have the time and is in sooo much pain.
